You can see by the way Sonic’s falling off the loop that the controls are a NIGHTMARE. Tails is in the lead, for god’s sake. You know it’s gone badly wrong when Tails is in the lead. He’s even going to get some rings. You’ll never see them again.

The ability to be able to press right consistently is a rather important part of the Sonic formula. It’s not OK to simply get all the colours looking right. More screenshots over on the SEGA US blog.

I’m in. As long as we can also do a “consoles that only play games” campaign, too (Wii doesn’t count obviously). They can probably be allowed to go on the Internet a bit as well but that’s it. I’m not completely backward. But non of this blu-ray media player does everything but wank you off bullshit.

Going back to Karl’s comment about dual-purpose kitchen equipment, I used to boil eggs in the kettle. Fill a jug kettle with water, pop an egg in and set it to boil. By the time the water’s boiled you have a soft boiled egg and hot water for a cup of tea.
Worked great until the time the egg bounced off the element at the bottom, cracking the shell and leaving spindly threads of egg all through the water.

I agree with consoles only being for games. I don’t want to watch movies or have to talk to people with a console, thanks.
And phones are for phone calls (and for impromptu photos of swirls, faces and batteries, obviously).
